Best Coffee and Beignets in New Orleans

On a recent visit to New Orleans, everyone told my friend and I we HAD to visit Cafe DuMonde for their famous coffee and beignets.

They were correct.

The beignets – basically fried dough – were excellent with warm powdered sugar on them, but for me, their coffee stole the show! It was sooooo good.

I think what makes it different from your regular coffee is that it has chicory in it.  It adds a bold, but distinct taste. We liked it so much, my friend and I each brought a can home with us!

The cafe has an indoor and outdoor area, and they are ALWAYS packed! They even have a take out line, which also had a pretty long wait.

The inside has an antique feel and is like you stepped back in time.

If you are in New Orleans you have to check the place out. It’s a city staple that has been there for years. It’s such a great city to go with friends for some fun and adventure!

Enjoy! And, travel often!

    Wow! Takes me back. I really cannot remember the coffee at all as I was too busy porking (Sly bacon reference there for Matt) on the beignets. Wouldn’t it be great if there was a place in LA we could get them??
